Holy shit! I have no idea how you can code to that music, but thank you for expanding my horizons. There are some great tunes there!

For anyone who is into electronic music, I put together a coding playlist on spotify that I've put a lot of thought into.

Mostly ambient, but enough variety to keep it interesting.

Hopefully you'll discover a few cool artists you haven't heard of before :)

Never heard 'em. Added to my list of new music, thanks!

I'm very sorry to admit that (happy) hardcore does it for me. The music sucks but I get awfully productive by listening to it on full volume on my headphones...
